Rev limiter questions Do ls1 rev limiters really govern by limiting fuel? Also if you drive an auto and let it shift on its own will it ever hit the rev limiter? Reason i ask is because im soon to be running a dry shot and don't want to touch the governor while spraying.

A properly shifting auto should never hit the rev limiter. If it is, either the shift points have been modified, the tire size is wrong, or the trans is sliping due to internal wear or improper fluid level.
